We cats don't care how much Paul Ryan works out at the gym, he's still afraid to get in a fight with Donald Trump.
Ryan gave a so-called big speech this week, allegedly decrying the tone of today's politics (ahem, today's Republican politics), but without mentioning Trump by name. Goodness gracious, what a chicken. Even Willard Mitt Romney, is his big speech decrying, et cetera, condemned The Donald specifically.
Ryan's waffling is particularly despicable because, like others, he continues to insist that he'll back whomever the party nominates. "Because I have a special role as chair of the Republican convention, I stay neutral and I support the nominee," he's said.
Neutral? Really? We cats are wondering how far this "neutrality" will go. What if there are riots in Cleveland, as Trump has predicted? What if Corey Lewandowski doesn't just bruise a reporter, but breaks somebody's bone? What if a Trump supporter calls President Obama the n-word, or Chuck Schumer the k-word? At what point will Paul Ryan call these people out for what they are? At any point?
We understand that GOP leaders have had it both ways on the rabidly racist haters who make up the Republican base for so long, that they're not good at this. But it's time they started. In the meantime, we cats HISS.
